2023 SEASON

[Superbelt]

Wild Card Weekend.

Steelers have an extra day of rest, having played Saturday while the Bills played Sunday night.

Going to be a lot of precipitation before and after this game, wintery mix with a good bit of wind, too.

Perfect Buffalo weather. Something that will make both Offenses more one-dimensional.

 

[Superbelt]

At least 2 weeks down.

Best case scenario, he might be available for an AFCC game.

I know! Unbelievable right?!?!

you're going to be awfully heartbroken this coming offseason when some other team offers Mason a contract that the Steelers balk at matching.

I think Harvin's days are (rightfully) numbered...

A Wing and a prayer

I wanted this to be true so badly lol... It's a fake account

LOL....

^ That joke is based off this tweet:

It really seems like JJ lobbying to come out of retirement to suit up for the Steelers, with this and his prior comments. Wouldn't be surprised if come next year, that speculation comes back around.

High wind gusts too. This is gonna be a special kinda game.

Highmark Stadium is well inside the 18" to 24" zone.

There is going to be a lot of “rock to Naj” on Sunday.

Moved to Monday, preferred real bad weather to give us a better chance……

Yeah I thought Sunday if they needed to run a lot the Steelers had a better chance.

the field is clear, but a lot of fans are gonna be sitting and standing in two feet of snow.

On to the draft…..

Here's a fun one!

Steelers recent Playoff record. Made the Conference championship, losing to NE in 2016. After that, how has it gone?

In the Divisional Round Jacksonville led the Steelers 21-0 into the 2nd quarter in 2017. Final score 42-45.

Wildcard game against Cleveland led the Steelers 28-0 into the 1st quarter in 2020. Final score 37-48.

Wildcard game against Kansas City led the Steelers 35-7 into the 3rd quarter in 2021. That 7 points? That was a TJ Watt TD. Final score 21-42.

Wildcard game against Buffalo led the Steelers 21-0 into the 2nd quarter in 2023. Final score 17-31.

Outscored 105-7 in that stretch. Lost every game. One and done.

That's a lot of points to spot an opponent before you even wake up. Hard to compete when you spend the first half doing nothing, and then trying to play hero ball and catch up in the 2nd half.
